Simply myself!

Photography is a passion for me, it allows my ideas and visions to reveal themselves in a tangible way. It is a labor of love; I pour my heart & soul into it and I love it when a bunch of 'not-so-organized' and abstract ideas in my mind input as a recipe to produce an excellent image output. What a wonderful feeling! I am constantly trying to learn, practice and better my skills and I believe this is then reflected in one's work. Photography is an art and Photography is fun and Photography is love :)

I am a huge fan of film and vintage look that gives a special and rather mysterious character to the photos and I just try to achieve that distinctive mood and tone of the Black & White and high speed Color films as a defined style specially in the portraits.

I have developed a special interest for traveling and just love capturing nature when I am out there. I am happiest when I am traveling. This really has some amazing chemistry with my heart and mind and of course the soul. Meeting new people, listening to thrilling stories, experience diverse tastes and sounds and scenic beauty along the way and learning through the whole process is just something to die for. As one of my respectful friends cleverly stated, "I am not a photographer but i have been in and at beautiful places with a camera". I couldn't agree more - it's all about the time and the moments and the inspiration/motivation and most importantly life itself.

Pakistan in general and Peshawar/N.W.FP in particular are a matter of love affair for me, something that i just can't resist. These feelings can be seen throughout my photographic work.

I hope you guys enjoy whenever you are passing by.

Enjoy the colorful ride and feel the concept of 'AQS' ! (a word meaning 'image' or sometimes 'shadow' in Urdu language) ...

Thanks for sparing time and looking in.

For the curious, I'm a Pakistani, originally belong to the northern town of Peshawar but live and work in the city of Lahore - the provincial capital of Punjab which is the largest province by population and is considered to be the breadbasket of the nation.
